So, maybe Widmore was the one who gave Desmond the idea to join the military? How funny is that? Desmond allows Widmore to change his whole life because Widmore doesn't think much of Desmond, but Desmond apparently thinks the world of Widmore. Sad, really.
Right I don't think that Des was lying to Mr Whitmore in Flashes about being in the military since it had not happened yet.. He joined after he didn't ask Penny to marry him the second time.. My guess he wanted to do something great in the military and instead was kicked out.. That is why when she meets him at the stadium he has to join the boat race... He feels he still needs to do something "GREAT" to be worthy of Penny since according to Whitmore he is not worthy of drinking his whiskey and not worthy of marrying his daughter..
